BERLIN, July 15-The American press is
one of the greatest of modern powers. The
sheet which is conned with so slight con
ception of its enormous significance by our
citizens every day in the home circle, the
shop, IT,, railroad car, the hotel, reading
room, fees affair, from pole to pole, from
Indus to Peru The enterprise which has
rendered our newspapers the admiration of
the entire reading world has achieved the
miracle of making the name Of those who
contribute to the American press familiar
to the literati of every land. How other
wise can account for the fact that on my
recent presentation to her Imperial High
ness, the Crown Princess of Germany, that
great lady should have cautiously asked
me ii this was indeed Olive Logan, saying
she had heard of me often and adding that
kindness of phrase which, | regret to say,
that molesty, which has always Curbed my
efforts, prevents my here recording? A
noble vocation is it to pen thoughts which
are destined by the force of favoring cir
cumstances, to wing their way from cottage
to palace, over mountain, over ocean, over
plain. delight in my literary work, and
always have done so; and to the next
deputation of mothers who wait on me to
shall we do with our girls" my reply will
certainly be MAKE journalists Of them"
The Crown Princess i'll every way is
charming woman. Her appearance IS
youthful to such degree that it is difficult
TO remember that she is a grandmother.
She is one of the greatest inteliects of the
age, Her knowledge of languages is very
extensive, and her reading v0luminous and
varied. She is of medium height, fair hair,
and plump but not stout figure. On the
occasion when this future Empress rendered
her sister-woman, the humble pen-worker.
Olive Logan, very proud and happy, her
imperial highness was dressed in an ex-
quisite muslin gown of white dotted with
figure of flowers and leaves, and having
knots of green and pink ribbon punched
here and there about sleeves, neck and
corsage. Her bonnet was of Grape, of the
lovely shade called Rose du Barri, and it
was tied under the chin with strings of
moss green tulle; white parasol, long
Swedish gloves, tan-oolored, and a dainty
lace handkerchief completed the costume,
which was as fresh and summerlike as it
was simple and refined. OLIVE LOGAN.

DODGE'S DIGEST.
A Showing of Which the People Have
Good Reason to be Proud.


EASTMAN, GA, July 31.-The sum total
of the tax returns of Dodge county for the
year 1887 is S1,212, 40, while the total re
turns for 1856 amounted TO 81 passes. At
first glance these figures apparently indicate
a decrease of S37, $50 in the taxable property
of the county. A close inspection and
analysis of the tax digests, however, shows
that instead of Il decrease there is III fact
a large increase IN the value or the taxable
! property
In 1856 there was returned 3S5, 04 acres of
/ land, valued at S46s, 1G2 This year 3l0,Go4
acres of land Is returned, valued at S46s,-
40 This shows that 60, 800 acres of land
has not been retu ned at all this year, and II
this land was in the county in 1886, IL must
be here still. Then placing the same valua-
ton upon this unreturned $3.50 acres as
the tax payers have placed upon the land
which is returned, gives 800, 400, and adding
this TO the total returns of 1887, as above
stated, we have S1,307, 94S, and deducting
from this amount the total returns of
| 1886, shows an increase of $3.50.
| The returns also show that land is returned
| at 25c, per acre more in 1887 than in 1886,
this being an increase Of 90 per cent in the
value Of land. There is also an increase of
| 81 23S III the value Of town property, an in
| crease of 81, 423 in merchandise, an increase
| OF 81, 40 in household and kitchen furniture,
| an increase OF S20,090 in plantation tools,
| library books, etc, and an increase of S373
in corn, provisiC MS, etc, held for sale. These
things show that there is decided improve
ment in tho condition of the people and
| an increase in all that goes to promote
human happiness. The items of property,
in which there is a decrease, consist of those
Things that people can best do without. For
instance there is a decrease in jeweliy and a
very large decrease III the amount of debts,
and if there is anything shown by the tax
returns of Dodge county this year upon
which the people have good cause to cou-
graduate themselves it is that they are rap
| idly getting themselves out of debt, having

THE ABOLITION OF PERFUMES.
Thos in the Form of Powder Are to be
Preferred.

Preferred.
New YORK, July 30-It is pleasure to
note that the indiscrininate use of perfumes
among members of the fair seq is rapidly
decreasing, and that the woman who
employees triple extracts with which to
sprinkle herself has become the exception
rather than the rule. Like everything else,
perfumes may be legitimate or not accord
ing to circumstances. Delicate odorS, such as
violet, heiOtrope or Orris root, are always
permissible, just as patchouly ard musk are
always to be stunned In any event, per
fuIne in the shape of sachet powder is to be
preferred to liquid extracts, If we except
one or two English preparations, notably one
manufactured in Canterbury by once
obscure chemist This subtle. delightful
scent was first used by the Princess of Wales
and later by Mrs Langtry, until it finally
became the rage. The chemist, meanwhile,
has made fortune .@AHefii3aF' custom
with fashionable woneiils u pour one or
two drops into their ears. Nobody now
adays ever thinks of putting perfume on
| handkerchief or rubbing it on ones hands.
Laces, underwear, ribbons, note paper,
gloves and all small articles OF
dress are made fragrant by large
sachet bags that are of size
| corresponding to the bureau or dressing
table drawers These bags are composed OF
silk and lined with raw cotton, upon which
the powder is spread. This, in addition to
a very moderate use of a faint suggestive
| odor, such as the wood violet, for instance,
| is all in the way of perfume, that is allow
able by really refined woman. Partisan
dreSsmalers have way of sending per
fumcd gowns to their customers. A strange
feature connected with this fashion is the
fact that the odor remains forever. A
lady of this city having purchased costume
whose every fold breathed the most
delicious perfume sent an order TO Paris
for a sample of the scent employed. The
dressmaker forwarded to her by express a
small bottle of ordinary looking sachet
| powder. Accompanying it was a bill to the
amount of $40. The lady paid the money,
but since then has generally inquired the
price of things before ordering.
